Anyone else feel like it's too good to be true?

mrs.g_6708 · November 2009

Maybe it's because it took us 12 cycles to conceive this baby, but I feel like I am going to wake up tomorrow and not be pregnant anymore. These are normal feelings, right? I just don't think it's sunk in yet and I'm feeling pretty good physically. Maybe it's just the huge change of mindset from 'I'm never going to get pregnant,' to 'omg, I actually got pregnant.'

That's how I felt... It's all kind of sunk in now but I am sure it will even more once I hear the h/b. I can't wait.

Totally normal. I didn't really believe it was true and kept having nightmares and scary thoughts about anything and everything that could go wrong until we finally saw our baby on the 12 week u/s. It will sink in eventually once you hear the h/b and see LO on the u/s. Keep thinking positive until then.

Baby girl just started kicking so now it sorta feels real...

I think that's very normal! I was terrified when I got pregnant with DS even though we weren't avoiding. It's somehow still a shock! Your life literally changes in the 3 minutes it takes for a pregnancy test to register. I would guess that after your first u/s or after you hear the heartbeat, it will seem more tangible!

yes, me!!!! I have only been trying since September, but I had a miscarriage last year.. Its nerve wrecking.. Even though I am feeling alot more positive now!!!

Baby dust your way!!!

Yes. I fluctuate between excitement and, "OMG - what have I done?"

mrs.g_6708 · November 2009

Thanks ladies. That makes me feel better. I just can't get over the fact that I am actually pregnant!! I feel like it's not real yet.

We did IVF to have our daughter and were basically told that any future children would require medical intervention as well so I was pretty surprised when this pregnancy happened all on it's own. I was shocked and although it's really sinking in now I am still shocked and so thankful. This is my third pregnancy and I've honestly felt the same way with all of them since every baby is a miracle.

Every single day!

That's exactly how I felt, and still feel somewhat. When all the pregnancy symptoms started to kick in it felt more real. When you first find out you just feel like the same "you" - it's hard to imagine that you are housing a LO. I'm looking forward to my u/s appt - just hang in there until then and Congrats!

Um... I took 6 pregnancy tests in as many days. Partly because I can't believe it, partly because they came with the package and well... why not?, and partly because I'm just so freaking excited and love seeing the result

So no, you're not alone. And you're probably not the craziest one on here obviously lol

I feel the exact same way! My husband and I keep telling eachother how we can't believe we are going to have a baby! We weren't really trying so it was a nice surprise! But I do feel like I need to take a test everyday just to be sure! haha!! We made sure to take 2 different brands originally just to make sure one brand wasn't off! haha

It still doesn't seem real to me either. Crazy!! I have to feel down where my ute is just barely starting to peek over my pubic bone just to remind myself!!

Might I add how flipping awesome it is to see you on this board!!

That's so amazing.

I feel the very same way, gardner. I can't wait for our u/s tomorrow. I keep telling H that I promise I'll be more positive once I see that heartbeat.

Thank you!!! Big Smile

YES. For me it was because we got pg. the first month we tried. I had a hard time believing that it could be true. Since I didn't have any symptoms for a couple of weeks I thought for sure I had to be crazy and that I wasn't actually pg. Now that I have m/s, I can believe it, but I am still shocked (and thankful and excited and overjoyed, lol)
